If the pulse is floating, the treatment should primarily focus on dissipating Qi stagnation. If the pulse is floating and rapid, wind-heat should be dispelled and heat cleared. If the pulse is deep and rapid, fire should be purged. If the pulse is rapid and feels deep and solid upon heavy pressure, both the exterior should be resolved and the interior attacked.
A woman suffered from Dan Du (a type of acute skin infection characterized by redness, swelling, heat, and pain), with itching and a floating pulse. She was treated with Xiaofeng San (Wind-Dispersing Powder) for four doses and recovered.
Another woman suffered from Dan Du, with itching and a floating-rapid pulse. She was treated with Renshen Baidu San (Ginseng Detoxifying Powder) for two doses, showing slight improvement; subsequently, Xiaofeng San was used for four doses, leading to stability.
A man suffered from Dan Du, presenting with dark red-purple discoloration, pain, fever, and a preference for cold drinks, with a deep-solid pulse. He was treated with Fangfeng Tongsheng San (Saposhnikovia Unblocking and Safeguarding Powder) for one dose, resulting in immediate symptom relief; then Jingfang Baidu San (Schizonepeta and Saposhnikovia Detoxifying Powder) plus Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix) and Lianzi (Coptidis Rhizoma) were administered for four doses, leading to recovery.
A woman suffered from macules/rashes, with itching, pain, constipation, and a deep-solid pulse. She was treated with Siwu Tang (Four Substances Decoction) plus Huangqin, Lianzi, Dahuang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma), and Huaihua (Sophorae Flos), and recovered.
An elderly person suffered from rashes, with slight redness, itching, and fever. They were treated with Renshen Baidu San for two doses, showing slight improvement; then Buzhong Yiqi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) plus Huangqin and Shanzhi (Gardeniae Fructus) was administered, leading to recovery.
A child suffered from rashes with pain, fever, restlessness, and thirst, desiring to take Qingliang Yin (Cooling Drink) to purge the bowels. Upon examination, the pulse was not solid, and light pressure did not reveal rapidity; this indicated that the pathogenic factor was in the meridians and channels, so purgation was contraindicated.
Wang Haicang stated: The ancients said that "neither the beginning nor the end stages should be purged." Why? The answer is: Purging is contraindicated at the beginning because the pathogenic factor has not yet fully manifested on the exterior; purging would prevent the pathogen from extending outward. At this stage, the pulse and symptoms indicate an exterior pattern without an interior pattern, hence purging is prohibited initially. Purging is contraindicated at the end because the toxic factor has already clearly appeared externally, lacking internal roots, with loose stools and no interior signs; purging would cause the Qi to collapse inward, hence it is prohibited at the end. A child with itching and fever was treated with Xiaodu Xijiao Yin (Detoxifying and Rhinoceros Horn Cooling Drink); after one dose, vomiting and diarrhea occurred. This indicates that the pathogenic factor was expelled from both upper and lower pathways, and the toxin naturally resolved. Shortly after, vomiting and diarrhea ceased, and the rash indeed subsided. After vomiting and diarrhea, the pulse showed seven beats per breath, which is a normal, harmonious pulse for children, indicating that the pathogen has been completely expelled. No further treatment is needed, and indeed, the child recovered. Jiegu said: In rash diseases, the manifestations vary. Swelling appearing on the exterior belongs to the Minister Fire of the Shaoyang Sanjiao (Triple Burner) and is called Dan; small red spots moving within the skin but not emerging belong to the Sovereign Fire of the Shaoyang and are called Zhen. Whenever Dan or Zhen symptoms appear, if spontaneous vomiting or diarrhea occurs, do not treat recklessly; prognosis is generally good, as the pathogen is being expelled from both upper and lower pathways. If Dan and Zhen erupt simultaneously, children may not tolerate it well, potentially leading to other complications. Generally, neither the beginning nor the end stages should be purged; formulas that stabilize the interior are more numerous than those that release the exterior. If constipated, mildly unblock to prevent pathogenic stagnation, allowing the pathogens to emerge sequentially, making it easier for the child to tolerate. Warm body temperature indicates a favorable course; cool body temperature indicates an unfavorable course.
A man suffered from Dan Du, with pain, constipation, and a rapid-solid pulse. Taking Fangfeng Tongsheng San was ineffective. The affected area was pricked with Bian stones (stone lancets) to release evil blood, and the previous medication was continued, leading to recovery.
A young boy had Dan-like erythema on his leg, wandering and unstable. First, sesame oil was applied to the affected area, and Bian stone therapy was used to release evil blood, causing the toxin to dissipate; then Jinyinhua San (Honeysuckle Powder) was administered for one dose, leading to stability.
A young boy suffered from Dan Du. Although the external presentation was mild, internally there was difficulty in defecation, indicating the disease involved the Zang organs. He took Dalianqiao Yin (Large Cardamom Drink) and applied Shenxiao San (Divine Efficacy Powder) externally, recovering.
A young boy had erythema all over his body. After Bian stone therapy, detoxifying medicines were administered, leading to immediate recovery.
Another young boy had erythema all over his body. Because he did not undergo Bian stone therapy, the toxic vapors entered the abdomen, leading to death. This condition involves malignant toxic hot blood accumulating in the Mingmen (Gate of Life), triggered by Minister Fire. Bian stone therapy should be used to drain the toxin. Cases where the toxin originates from the limbs and enters the abdomen are incurable. Although there are several types of Dan Du and several treatment methods, none are superior to Bian stone therapy. It is commonly observed that patients with slightly severe conditions who do not receive Bian stone therapy cannot be saved.
